6.2.4 Developer Mixing
Mechanism
This mechanism supplies toner from the sub hopper to the development
roller.
The dual mixing roller is composed of the outer paddle [A] and the inner
auger [B]. This carries developer to the rear and supplies developer to the
development roller [C].
The developer removed by the doctor plate [D] goes into the transfer auger
case [E], is carried to the front by the transfer auger [F], and falls into the
dual mixing roller case [G]. The developer is mixed when the process control
self check, toner supply recovery, or development is performed. (It is done
for one color at a time, in the order BKCMY, with the developer that is
currently at the development position.)
